Lumere is a company with a mix of software, analytics and research built on helping health systems eliminate unwarranted clinical variation and cut unnecessary costs.

 

We are guided by our Core Values

  1. Seek the frontier - Whatever your role, we are inspired by those who blaze trails and challenge the status quo.
  2. Obsess about impact - It’s our responsibility to bring bold innovation that leads to enduring change in healthcare.
  3. Do your best work - We seek individuals who care deeply about learning and teaching, and high performers who are even more self-aware.
  4. Welcome respectful debate - Our best ideas have come from active collaboration, are often based on limited information, and can contradict personal experience.
  5. Succeed, as one team - We have a single purpose and motivate each other to achieve it.

The Position

As a SaaS analytics company, our data is our lifeblood. DBREs are the stewards of this data and the systems that hold it. We are responsible for the reliability, resiliency and accessibility of our data layer. Additionally, we champion important initiatives to safeguard our customer's data and meet our GDPR/SOC2 compliance requirements. We do not operate as gatekeepers but instead partner with other teams to takeover operational concerns for the databases they use.

 

We are looking for a pragmatic database expert who highly values collaboration to help us build a world class database stack. If you are passionate about automation and desire to build a DevOps culture, we'd love to talk to you! We are a Postgres, AWS, Terraform, Python, Vue shop. We look for similar or transferable skills.

What are some of the things you will help us with?

  • Help promote DevOps culture by working with engineers to assume operational ownership
  • Build automation tools to make common database operations safe and predictable
  • Consult with teams on their data layer choices and decisions
  • Contribute to defining new best practices for our data layer
  • Work with teammates to evaluate our existing issues and pain points, provide guidance on how to address
  • Help reduce operational toil by automating away common issues
  • Work with engineering leadership to define Service Level Objectives for our primary datastores
  • Organize and automate regular disaster recovery drills with our System Admins
  • Build visualization tools and dashboards that provide insights into database health
  • Surface key database performance issues to the right teams
  • Identify risk areas in our critical systems and develop plans of action to mitigate those risks
  • Build systems that remove DBRE as the roadblock to production for schema alterations on databases
  • Have opportunities to contribute to in-house technical presentations and workshops that share your expertise.
